Jessie J Wants James Morrison Duet

Jessie J has expressed her eagerness to work with James Morrisonagain on her forthcoming second album.

The 23-year-old star, who is set to appear as a judge in the BBC's forthcoming talent show The Voice, has revealed that Morrison is at the top of her list of ideal collaborators for her next LP.

She told the Daily Star: "Up was the first song I'd ever recorded that I hadn't written and it was such a big deal to do that.

"When James sent me the demo, I just couldn't get the song out of my head. So when I went to the studio I wanted it to be perfect for him because I knew how personal Up's lyrics were to him."

And Jessie, who is openly bisexual, also said she'd be keen to work with a gay soul star called B Slade.

She explained: "[He is] this amazing artist who used to be called Tonex, but he retired when there was a lot of bad publicity when he revealed he was gay. B's voice is just insane."
